It’s All About Finding That Balance Between Saying Too Much ~ And Not Saying Enough! A Person Needs To Be Transparent Enough To Start The Process Of Self-disclosure While Also Being Aware Not To Overwhelm Others With Too Much Information At Once! (TMI)

Best Ways To Get To Know Each Other Through Self Disclosure!
Get to know each other more efficiently and learn to enjoy others more. You can get to know each other by being open, a great way to break down walls between strangers. Bonds with close friends are also crucial and necessary.
Self-disclosure can be an excellent way to quickly break down barriers between strangers and bond with friends even more intimately.
I have always been very open when it comes to self-disclosure between myself and others. In some ways, they are outstanding traits, yet in other ways, they can be something that can cause problems in my life.
It is usually best to set a respectful boundary that you feel comfortable with and then limit yourself to that point.
Some people are naturally outgoing, while others are more reserved and introverted. Every person must consider this when deciding on a comfort level for self-disclosure. Remember that everyone you talk with cannot trust your personal information. Unless you do not mind them talking to others about you, you might want to be selective in how much and who you share with personal details of your life.
Getting to know you is very important. Do not be too overbearing or too shy. Are you using self-disclosure? ~ Bill Greguska

- When you self-disclose, be sure the communication is reciprocal. Know it involves risk. The sharing starts with less personal information and grows more personal over time.
- Go somewhat slowly; don’t be in a hurry to tell someone too much about you too quickly.
- If you start sharing your feelings and confidential information without establishing a foundation for the relationship, the other person will feel uncomfortable.
- Self-disclosure should not be a one-way mono-log.
- You risk being rejected if you share something about yourself, self-disclosing too quickly.
- Disclosing means you trust them not to share your secrets with others or use them against you.
- Sharing personal information appropriately takes your relationship to a new level.
How Does Self Disclosure Work Concerning The Johari Window?
Evaluate WHY You Are Sharing!
- Sometimes I decide it is worth the risk to share something with someone I don’t know well. If they are hurt, I suppose they are going through something I have experience with, I may decide. In that case, the opportunity to benefit outweighs the risk, which differs from recklessly sharing because I’ve made an intentional assessment and decision.
- Asking myself why I want to share something also helps me see when my motivation is ego-based. Do I like to share something because it will win me points with the other person, or do I want to share because I believe the information will add value to the other person? The best rule of thumb is to share with others on a need-to-know basis.
